      Under Carp Settings > Remote System Password  you cna change the password to what the firewall password is but in our enviroment we like to change the username.

      Can you add the username functionality once you get the chance.  Right now we have to leave it at admin because otherwise CARP will fial to login and not transfer settings.

      Thanks for your help.

              Don´t forget, you must change the carp settings to the new "admin" name…

              Have fun

                  That´s all, right, and if the syncronisation is up and running you can see this in the logs!

                    So what you are saying is that CARP failover in 1.2-Release will take any username assigned to WebGUI?
                    Thanks

                        and pay attention! the interfaces must have the same order, please take a look at the screenshot…..

                        e.g. LAN, WAN, SYNC for the master and LAN,SYNC,WAN is not working......
